“Failure” has never been a part of Norah Burke’s vocabulary, so it comes as quite a shock when she gets fired from the marketing firm where she's built her career after threatening to blow the whistle on some shady business practices. Licking her wounds, she heads South for a little home-grown comfort.

Cam Crawford is a man who values tradition, preservation, and the love of a good woman. He’s not about to let a big box warehouse store capitalize on his hometown's economic downturn. He'll raise hell if he has to in order to stop them from destroying what he holds dear.

This unlikely pair just might be the perfect allies—in war and out. But will this city girl's bigger-picture perspective go with this small-town boy's "keep it as it is" attitude? And even if they can send the suits packing, can she really give up her corner office and power lunches for the corner booth at the local diner?

Wishful Romance

Trey's eye began to twitch as he watched the clock creep closer and closer to when he needed to leave, while his business associate on video conference continued to drone on about some staffing problems with their new London project. Edward was so damned long-winded. Trey wasn't even sure he'd stopped for breath for the past ten minutes. Maybe he had a future in filibusting. When it became apparent there wasn't a chance he'd get out the door on time, he sent a text to Sandy.


Gonna be late. Tied up in a meeting. Meet you there?


Her answer came back moments later. Got it covered.


What did that mean? Did she not want him to come? He stared at the three little dots that said she was typing more.


He grinned. At least until he remembered the proposal he had to get through tonight. He'd let a few things slide the last couple of days, but he really needed to get back on track.


Trey: I want to say yes, but I've got some work tonight.
